Oh yay they look lovely! I think mine is out for delivery today too can’t wait to receive it ❤️ I’ve also placed another order since for a teddy bear mug for DD as I managed to get £5 off my order using the spin the wheel thing on the website 😅

This Baylis and Harding set is down to £5. Might be good for Secret Santa?

Does anyone remember roughly what date the Nike Black Friday sale is? 🙏

Sold out! 😭

@Londonmummy66 can I ask what you mean about the thumb hole on Tazzies cashmere gloves please?
I have a pair from Turtledoves (from years ago) and want to buy a few pairs as Christmas gifts this year. I'm debating between buying from Tazzies and Newly new cashmere. Is there much of a difference between the style of the gloves that you're aware of? Thanks

In stock again!’!

Back in stock! Keep watching it

Not a bargain as such (but i think the price is quite reasonable). For those hard to buy people who are keen readers its worth checking out Persephone Books. They publish lovely copies of out of print books and if you contact them they can recommend titles. They also have a recommendations page here

I just received a couple for my birthday and they were my favourite present.

Wow that went quickly. Sold out again for me.

@Whoevenknowswhatisgoingon it is a The Ordinary product but based on how frequently it seems to be advertised and by how many influencers, their Lash Curl Finisher seems to be a viral product. Apparently it sets your curled lashes in place perfectly.

I got two of them last year on sale on Amazon. Definitely worth keeping an eye out there

Its BF30

My recipient was delighted with her Billie Ray book - beautifully wrapped and she said it was like a little treasure trove. I’m going to order more!

The tazzies gloves (purple & orange below) just have a slit for the thumb, and the others have a very short knitted bit which just covers the base of the thumb, like the plain blue ones below.

Another bloom and wild referral on the referral thread if anyone wants one.

@keepincool thank you. I hadn't noticed those slight differences.

@Shufflebumnessie - keepincool has explained it much better than I could but that is exactly what i meant...

Thank you.

I actually got rid of my bean to cup machine and have replaced it with the Ninja Prestige dual Brew - which is excellent and I'm getting much more use out of it. It brews ground coffee in various sizes - cup / mug / half carafe / full carafe and also has a nespresso machine and a milk frother (heat the milk first. It also does a cold brew.

I got mine from Costco - it's £249.99, but you get another £100 off at checkout.

@XxTigerlilyxx - just looking further on the Costco site and there does seem to be a little bean to cup machine available for £119.98.

ETA - if you don't have a Costco membership you can get one for £42. The coffee machine is £149 elsewhere. With a couple of purchases from Costco you'd probably make your membership fee back in savings. They also do free delivery (except on groceries). Their warranties on TV's, etc are very good too.

Apologies. I know it was back a thread or 2 ago but what were the heated blankets that people ordered. My kids need new hot water bottles but maybe these would be safer.

How old is she?

Mitre linen have a clearnace sale on at the moment - pretty dull stuff but I know there were people on earlier threads wanting bedlinen, They also have a half price nespresso machine. The only thing to watch for is that as they supply the hotel trade their prices do not include VAT which is added at checkout.

Can I ask please if anyone has ordered from Zalando and what their experience was please ? I have seen a watch I would like to buy and Zalando are significantly cheaper . Thank you 😊
